Not sure what to say?

Gordon made a decision for Christ many years ago in our living room in Phoenix . I am looking forward to seein him in heaven

I only met Gordon a couple of times, but often heard of his accomplishments. I have been privileged to know his daughters ,especially Toni Stewart,( and Doug)also Eddie Ruth and Charlotte. He had to be an outstanding human being to have such an amazing family. We sent our loving thoughts and prayers to all his family.

To the family of Officer Gordon Selby:

I never got to meet you officer Selby but I did hear many great achievements that you accomplished during your Law Enforcement career for you were a officer colleague with my longtime friend and Law Enforcement mentor Major Retired,Glenn Sparks,38 years on the job and the last man to retire with the rank of Major.

Now Officers your work is done here on earth its time for the both of you up yonder to catch up an ol times.

My prayers...

Gordon was class double A. I met him during my first few years as a deputy prosecutor. I believe him to be one of the finest police officers I have ever met. Competent and above all a perfect marksman. My sympathies to his loved ones.

So sorry for your loss Shawna
